Michelle Malkin was wrong to suggest that "self-inflicted wounds" meant Kerry deliberately shot himself. It's clear that what was meant was that Kerry inflicted the wounds on himself via accident or carelessness.
Nobody's perfect. She just made a mistake. It wasn't through bad intentions, but it was a mistake. OK?
Its a good question and Michelle asked it nicely and the Left can't shoot it down so they attack her personally. Good grief and if she did make a mistake, they won't let her get a word in edgewise. I think for the Olbermanns of this world the truth is political TNT - they can't afford to see it receive widespread exposure.
According to her article, posted here, she did NOT suggest that -- Matthews tried to twist what she said into that, but she did NOT suggest he shot himself. I would need to read the transcript, but that is Michelle's take on it.
As I read the transcipt, it was Matthews who said that, putting the words in her mouth.
